"Everything is not enough.
Nothing is too much to bear."

"Tell my baby I said 'So long.'
Tell my mother I did no wrong.
Tell my brother to watch his own.
And tell my friends to mourn me none."

I dreamed about her, about us.
I held her tightly in a lingering instant,
in my arms the tingle of livelihood was sparked
by the transfer of data across the synapses of my brain.

What a nightmare, to wake from a dream.
My only dream.

"As someone long prepared for the occasion;
in full command of every plan you wrecked...
do not choose a coward's explanation
that hides behind the cause and the effect."
- L. Cohen

Today, for a sailing moment, I saw the bored sun setting over the vast Lake Superior. It hanged to the tune of two children laughing. It sailed along in the wind like a true boat, undemanding, all of it and it was the first undemanding thing I'd seen in a while.

"The words that he spoke
seemed the wisest of philosophies.
There's nothing ever gained
by a wet thing called a tear.
When the world is too dark
and I need the light inside of me,
I'll walk into a bar
and drink fifteen pints of beer.

I am going, I am going
any which way the wind may be blowing.
I am going, I am going
where streams of whiskey are flowing."

why is she speaking to me?

I remember a story where a child tells all his secrets to a hole in a tree. And there the secrets dwell with no response.

I've adjusted to being that child.

And now the tree has spoken back.

But for how long? I desire more words.

Or is it?

It's funny when you spend your life wishing you were dead.

Or is it?

It's funny when Messi is your hero.

Read it out loud and hear the beauty.

Does anything ever end gracefully?
